Bechtel Bounces Mortensen in Fifth

Your fifth-place finisher, Carlos Mortensen
Your fifth-place finisher, Carlos Mortensen
Jim Bechtel has moved into contention in a big way, by eliminating start-of-day chip leader Carlos Mortensen. The two got it in after an {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, with Mortensen’s {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} dead against Bechtel’s {3-Clubs}{3-Spades} after the {9-Diamonds} turn. Bechtel had Mortensen outchipped by 3,100 and moved all the way up to 51,000 after the meaningless {Q-Hearts} river.

Mortensen finished in fifth, his edifice of grey chips no more.
